    Xbox's ROG Ally X & Battlefield 6: Reviews, Hype, & Reality

    Episode #574: It's been a massive week for Xbox fans — between the launch of the ROG Ally X handheld PC and the surge of Battlefield 6 reviews, everyone's asking the same question: what's hype and what's actually real? In this episode, we break down how the Ally X is reshaping portable Xbox gaming, where it outperforms expectations, and where it still struggles to feel truly “console-like.” From frame rates to comfort to compatibility, we put it all in perspective for gamers wondering if it's worth the upgrade.On the other side of the battlefield (literally), Battlefield 6 has finally landed — and it's off to a hot start with over 6 million copies sold, a big chunk of them on Xbox. But does it live up to the franchise's promise? We dive into early player reactions, critical reviews, and the real-world gameplay experience to find out if DICE finally nailed the formula or just repackaged nostalgia under a shinier engine.Who are the XoneBros?We are your exclusive Xbox Series X & Game Pass weekly podcast.

    Nestlé is the world's largest packaged food and drink company, but after a turbulent period it has announced plans to cut 16,000 jobs over the next two years. But after selling its water division for €5bn earlier this year, will it lead to the Swiss conglomerate slimming down further? Andrew Peach finds out why the US Chamber of Commerce is trying to stop the Trump administration charging businesses US$100,000 for each foreign skilled worker visa. Elsewhere, Japan is known for its political stability, but amid numerous economic challenges, could a new prime minister be the answer to its problems? And what's all the fuss about with Microsoft's first-ever handheld Xbox console? The latest business and finance news from around the world, on the BBC.

    From May 02, 2025: Jack saves the worst news for last in this episode featuring tech journalist Florence Ion. Microsoft is increasing the price of its entire Xbox line, including its consoles and peripherals. Jack and Flo lament that it's only going to get worse, thanks to an ever-volatile economy. READ MORE: ⁠Microsoft Raises the Price of All Xbox Series Consoles, Xbox Games Confirmed to Hit $80 This Holiday⁠ Elsewhere, with Soundgarden being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Jack introduces Flo to guitarist Jason Everman. A decorated veteran of the U.S. Army and Special Forces , Everman was not only a brief member of Soundgarden, but also a one-time member of Nirvana. Jack wonders if Everman feels any jealousy or resentment for being in two bands that have since been admitted to the Hall of Fame, and not being inducted as a member of either. READ MORE: ⁠The Rock 'n' Roll Casualty Who Became a War Hero⁠ Also discussed in this episode: Jack is the reason Flo uses Threads, because ⁠Jack is a big deal there⁠. Flo is a big fan of physical media preservation, and schools Jack on the benefits of running a Plex server. As it turns out, in the year of our Flying Spaghetti Monster 20-and-25, Flo and Jack are equally into Tamagotchi. Hot take: Seth McFarlane has a lot of anger about Charles Schulz' Peanuts cartoons, and takes it out in ⁠Family Guy cutaway gags⁠.

    Chris has gone big with his next pick, Van Helsing, Universal's flashy attempt to revive their classic monsters for a modern blockbuster audience. Directed by Stephen Sommers, hot off the success of The Mummy films, the project was designed as both a gothic action spectacle and a potential launchpad for a wider franchise. With a hefty budget of around $160 million, the film spared no expense on lavish sets, elaborate costumes, and state-of-the-art visual effects to bring together Dracula, Frankenstein's monster, werewolves, and more in a single monster-mash universe. Universal saw Van Helsing as a tentpole production that could recapture the energy of their golden age monsters.The production itself was an enormous undertaking, with filming spanning locations such as Prague, Paris, and a host of detailed soundstages built to recreate grand gothic landscapes. ILM and other VFX houses were tasked with delivering cutting-edge digital effects, while Hugh Jackman, in the title role, underwent intense training to perform many of his own stunts. Despite all the ambition and money thrown at it, Van Helsing was met with mixed reviews upon release — critics praised the spectacle but criticised its overstuffed narrative and heavy reliance on CGI. Still, it's a fascinating example of early-2000s Hollywood excess, where studios swung for the fences trying to build franchises before “shared universes” became the norm.If you enjoy the show, we have a Patreon, so become a supporter ⁠⁠here⁠⁠.Referral links also help out the show if you were going to sign up:⁠⁠NordVPN⁠⁠⁠⁠NordPass⁠⁠Trailer Guy Plot SummaryIn a time when monsters walk the earth… one man hunts them all. Hugh Jackman is Van Helsing — the ultimate warrior against evil. Armed with gadgets, grit, and a grim sense of duty, he'll face Dracula, werewolves, Frankenstein's monster, and a horde of nightmares that refuse to stay dead. With danger around every corner and darkness closing in, the battle between man and monster is about to erupt in a gothic showdown like no other. This summer… evil has met its match.Fun FactsThe enormous set for Dracula's castle was one of the largest ever constructed at Prague's Barrandov Studios, showcasing Universal's investment in the film's gothic style.Director Stephen Sommers insisted on practical stunts wherever possible, leading to Hugh Jackman doing many of his own wirework sequences.The vampire brides' flying scenes were achieved with a mix of motion capture and practical harness work, which was notoriously difficult for the actresses to perform.The film's werewolf transformations were a blend of prosthetics and CGI, considered cutting-edge at the time, but often criticised for looking dated only a few years later.Dracula's three brides were modelled after classic vampire lore, but with a modern twist — Sommers wanted them to feel like “supermodels crossed with banshees.”The production team used more than 1,500 visual effects shots, making it one of the most VFX-heavy films of 2004.Kevin J. O'Connor, who played Igor, was a longtime collaborator with Sommers, having appeared in both The Mummy and The Mummy Returns.The iconic horse-drawn carriage chase scene was filmed on massive outdoor sets in the Czech Republic, with many practical explosions added to heighten the chaos.Universal Pictures released a tie-in video game for Van Helsing on PlayStation 2 and Xbox, voiced by Hugh Jackman.The film's attempt to revive Universal's monster legacy would later inspire the failed “Dark Universe” reboot attempt with The Mummy (2017).⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠thevhsstrikesback@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/vhsstrikesback⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
